Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2005-0968 is a remote denial-of-service issue in Computer Associates eTrust Intrusion Detection 3.0. A remote attacker could crash or disrupt the product by abusing poorly validated size values before a Crypto API key import call. The business risk is loss of intrusion-detection availability, not confirmed data compromise. Exposure appears limited to organizations still running Computer Associates eTrust Intrusion Detection 3.0. The source bundle does not identify other versions, CPEs, deployment paths, or whether a specific service must be internet-facing. Treat this as a legacy availability risk. Prioritize confirmation and decommissioning if the product still exists in the environment, especially where it supports security monitoring or compliance evidence. Mitigation focus: Identify and retire unsupported eTrust Intrusion Detection 3.0 deployments where possible.; Check vendor or archived CA guidance for any official patch or workaround.; Restrict untrusted network access to affected IDS components..
